#7 Bayern Munich - £235 million

Bayern has arguably the best group of young players

Top earner: Robert Lewandowski (£200,000-per-week)

Bayern doesn't have the biggest of the wage bill as it has a relatively young group of players who are content with the game time/wages they get at the Allianz Arena.

The German champions have seen their wage bill rise this year after the acquisitions of Kingsley Coman and Corentin Tolisso. James Rodriguez's loan move from Real Madrid has temporarily added to the wage bill for the Bavarians.

However, Arjen Robben, Franck Ribery, and Rafinha would be free agents in summer and new arrivals could be expected to fill in for them. The figure might increase by close to a quarter of a million next summer as the German side looks to push for Champions League success.
